I hope they mix it up a little, it looks very familiar (perhaps too so). The first game was (is) great, but it did suffer a little from some awkward mechanics and stuff, and some of the environments were repetitive.

I'm just hoping it's not all generic ship setting all the time, or that they've just upped the graphics and added new items.

The sequal should be even more amazing or it is a waste.

Refinement PLUS new things.

Not just superficial enhancements either, twisting mechanics slightly to give it a fresh appeal and maybe even removing things entirely with bold progressions.

This is what I hear Mass Effect 2 does so well (even though it's split the camps).

It takes place on a super-station. I guess he can now fly. And they've added enemies, weapons, and multiplayer.

Hey, I don't know if the first game had (has) such a feature but it would be awesome if they made a survival mode, the bloodthirsty aliens would keep coming and it would be even more awesome if you can submit the time you survived to a online highscore board.

Just an idea.

Ehhh... this isn't that kind of game I think. The suspense comes from having to progress the story while at any moment A FUCKING GIANT MONSTER MIGHT POP OUT OF A FUCKING VENT AND KILL YOU. This suspense is kind of lost if you have your back to a corner and are waiting for them.

Well, it can be vice versa. If you stay in a room / area / bathroom / etc. for more than X seconds, you die. Although you should travel around the ship (or the map(s) given for the survival mode) and while traveling around, you should be always aware of what's going on, or BAM A FUCKING GIANT MONSTER MIGHT POP OUT OF A FUCKING VENT AND KILL YOU. The point is you shouldn't wait for them, they should wait for you to come, and the difference from the progress story is that it is the point to stay alive, not to complete the missions or go over 'there'. (you know what I mean)

It's just an idea, opinion.

Oh man, I loved the first Dead Space. It also showed us that EA was finally turning from their old ways and pumping out original IPs along with Mirror's Edge. I can't wait for the second installment.

I was a little weary of the changes, but everything looks great.

I'm guessing those puking fuckers have vomit that attract other necromorphs. Like the game wasn't hard enough before.

I never played the first one but this looks a bit like Left 4 Dead.
Amirite?

Orange- N cannot be spoken, or even thought about in my household. If my parents ever found out that I have played N since the cleansing, my life would be ruined. I keep the game in a multi-passworded .rar on a USB flash drive inside a locked boron alloy container that requires two keys to open (I keep one under the 64th hammer in my piano, and the other one in a small section of removable ceiling in the corner of the attic) hidden in a wall compartment lined with aluminium foil to prevent sonar detection behind my 375 kg cupboard, which is bolted to the floor - the only way to reach it is to abseil outside the fourth floor window and use a screwdriver to unfasten the screws holding the secret brick in place on the opposite side of the wall, but the screwdriver must be a specific type like the one I own, since if any other screwdriver comes into contact with the screws, the entire building will explode, as will a seperate charge placed inside the boron alloy container, rendering the USB useless. Even once the container is retrieved, attemping to open it without the arming pin in place (which is kept inside the battery compartment of my Maglite) will cause the water reservoirs lining the container to burst and react with the caesium lining, causing the container to burst into flames - the only way to prevent this is to use the arming pins to shut off the reservoirs with a sliding steel door. The USB itself contains an accelerometer linked to an explosive charge, meaning that if the USB detects its own movement speed as being greater than 5 cm/s, it will explode - any person attempting to steal it would have to move at a uselessly slow speed. Once plugged into a computer, the USB will upload a ghost virus onto it, leaving no traces. Only the right password can deactivate this virus, and if it is left on the computer for more than six hours, it will format all drives.

As you can see, I take my N playing very seriously.

Guiseppi- I'd much rather watch animals get boned in the ass.

Yanni- If it's glad, it's not rape.

Tsukatu- I refuse to use throw-away bags for such a frequent purpose as buying groceries. Instead, I've collected the hair of my two pet dogs and have woven them together into an all-natural, 100% environmentally friendly bag that I bring with me everywhere. And when I buy products that come in glass and plastic containers, I track down the company that packages them and ship back their containers so that they don't take up space in landfills.


Yeah, I use plastic.

Tsukatu- I hear Ebony Online is great, too. Cum save your princess, my lord!

Ska- UR MUM LIKE IS SPICY

Ska- why d i get the feeling what i typed will end up in the quote depository; or worse: someone's sig.

KinGAleX- I did it on the couch a little while ago.

Zeph- I got too pissed at the knife in the end so I just broke the wood on my knee
